What a great vacation. We were here 11-14 to 11-18 and the weather couldn't have been nicer. First I would like to command Funjet and Ryan Air for making the first and last leg of our trip a real pleasure, we even took off 30 minutes early which make the late arrival home (9:30 P.M.) easier for the people picking us up. Check in at the resort was fast (5 min.) and we got the room we requested which was less than 100 feet from the beach and about 150 from the pool. The pool area is hugh and clean with a lot of activity. The beach is beautiful with places in the sun or shade any time of the day. The rocks in the water are no big deal, bring water shoes or get in from the ladders on the pier. The food is not gourmet but you won't starve. The biggest problem I saw was the flies and birds that were all over the food. Just get there when they open or stick to the hot food or food that is served in covered trays. The Mexican restaurant has walls and windows so they don't have this problem. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The farthest walk to anywhere can't be more than 5 minutes, get out and enjoy nature. The mosquitoes where no problem, not a single bite till I got back to Texas. Make sure you go to the nightly entertainment and hope they have some good people in the audience that like to make fools of themselves, they made the shows. We want snorkling with Dressel but it was a BIG mistake. The trip was OK but they cater to divers and a lot of time is wasted dropping off and picking up divers. I would go on a party boat or a snorkle only trip next time. Don't forget to snorkle under the pier all the way to the end. Just be careful because the boats come and go in this area and your really not supposed to go under the pier but there were 100s of fish and I even saw a starfish and a horseshoe crab between the 1st and 2nd ladders. The maid leaves towel animals that are really cute and petals on the bed. If the rooms where just a tad bigger with a soft chair or loveseat they would be great. The bed could be a little softer and my request for a pad never was filled. My back still aches, don't know why they can't do something about this problem since it is mentioned by almost everyone. Overall this is a great resort with good food, plenty of drinks, pleasant staff, lots of entertainment and beautiful grounds. I don't know why so many people complain about everything, I guess its just their nature. Go to Iberostar and enjoy your vacation. We would return in a heartbeat.

My Husband and I just returned from the Iberostar and absolutely loved it!!! We were there 11/14-11/18. The staff was very friendly, and I had my favorite bartenders, Marco and Candeliro they are alot of fun! One night we had reservations for the steak restraunt, and it was great. The drinks are wonderful, and they do not water them down. BELIEVE ME!! The dirty banana and the coco locos were my favorite. The nightly entertainment was very good, the staff works very hard to put on great shows. We will be returning to the Iberostar next year, but for a week this time!!!

Hola Amigos! My fiance and I stayed at the Iberostar Cozumel from November 9-13. I must say that we had such a wonderful time and didn't want to come home! Let me tell you a few things about the place. First off, the first thing I noticed was a wonderful lobby with a bar and many large chairs and couches to relax on. Check in took five minutes and they gave us a ride to our room on a golf cart, which comes in handy so you don't need to carry your luggage. Our room was great! We were on the second floor with the large thatch roof. We had one king bed and had more than enough space in the room. The marble bathroom was great also. The bed was firm, not hard as a rock. I was so tired at night from all the sun and activites during the day that I could've slept on rocks anyway. One tip: They give you pesos for change in the gift shop. The first day I was there I bought something and used the pesos for daily tips for the maids that cleaned our rooms. Our room was by the pool and there was no smell at all. The pool is definitely the place to be during the day, especially the swim up bar. Make sure you talk to the bartenders and ask about all the different tropical drinks they make. I loved the Dirty Monkeys they made. The beach was rocky for the first 10 feet into the water, but its no big deal. The Star Friends were great! They work during the day entertaining the guests and then perform their shows at night. The shows were really funny and enjoyable. The food was good. I found something I liked at each buffet. I also enjoyed the Mexican restaurant. The staff was very friendly and they take care of all of your requests.
The Iberostar provided the perfect tropical getaway! I highly recomend this place to anyone who is thinking about going to Cozumel. My fiance and I can't wait to go back!!! If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me.

We were there 11/12 through 11/15. I have been to 3 prior all-inclusives and have been to Cozumel before and Iberostar-Cozumel tops them all. The staff worked their tails off to please everyone and my hats off to them. The people there make the place. The waiters/bartenders waited on you hand and foot as if you were in an expensive restaurant. We don't even get service like that in the states where big tips are expected. The food...WOW. Was really good for all-inclusive. Great selection, presentation, and good quality. We ate at the Steak restaurant (reservations only) and it was really good. I recommend that one over the Mexican one (based on what I heard). The rooms were nice. We had a downstairs room off the beaten path and did not experience critters in our room. Nice marble floors and bathroom. The only gripe I had on that would be the hardness of the beds. Iberostar..please listen to people in these reviews and get softer beds. I like a firm bed..but not that firm. The alcholic beverages were outstanding, offering top shelf liquor and no watering down of drinks (that I could tell). The resort grounds were jungle like and very well kept. Lots of plants, flowers, wildlife. We took our 6 year old and she had a blast...she cried when it was time to leave. There is a kids club offered and Alicia is the best when it comes to leaving your children with her. My favorite spot was the pool swim up bar. I spent a lot of time there. We actually like the beach area. Nice shady palms to sit under. Yes the water area is rocky but there is nice white sand outside of the water on the shore. You can snorkel around the pier. Water sports area is nice with free sailboat, windsurfing, kayaking. You just take it. The nightly shows were good...dont miss the Mexican show. Outstanding cultural dancing. My hats off to the Waiters, bartenders, Mgmt staff, housekeeping, groundskeepers, recreation staff, and especially Alicia the kids club staff. You guys/girls are the best and we WILL be back. You have a really good thing going.
